    Is there any way to use malware defender and private firewall together?

    Running a (hopefully for a while too) new setup:

    Firefox 7 (soon to be :cool: + ABP and JS Switch and TrackerBlock extensions, 3rd party cookies off.

    Returnil System Safe 2011. VirusGuard off, Trust programs from real disk only.

    Panda Cloud Free

    Outpost Security Suite Free (Still testing it out, letting it make its own rules)

    MBAM Pro

    Sorry to hear that. When I first installed it (and I admit I had just installed the rest of my new setup as well), the desktop did take some time to load, and my net connection took quite some time to kick in as well. However, after a reboot or two, everything is working faster now. I expect some slowdown, after all, my system isn't used to loading all this stuff up.

    Guys I keep seeing a lot of you talking about EMET. I'd like to try it. Is there a tutorial somewhere on how to set it up?

    Thanks. :)

    I wrote a guide to EMET on another forum but I'm too lazy to go rehost the images etc.

    Basically, EMET things like Java, Firefox/Opera, Adobe Reader/Flash.

    Main:
    -Bitdefender AV 2012
    -Emsisoft AntiMalware Pro

    Rest:
    -Process Hacker/Process Explorer

    Wow even java and flash? No problems with doing so?

    So far I setup Firefox and Adobe Reader. The other settings are set to.

    DEP - Always on
    SEHOP - Application Opt in
    ASLR - Application Opt in

    Should that be cool?

    Thanks.

    I can't EMET flash because I use Chrome but I definitely EMET Java and I've had no issues.

    I use those settings. SEHOP should be Opt Out though.

    You don't have to EMET flash. You just have to EMET the browser's main processes, and if running Firefox, you also need to EMET the executable responsible for loading the plugins, which I do not recall what name it has, since I don't use Firefox. Hopefully, someone will mention it. :D

    Thanks I will wait for someone to mention it.

    Guess it would not hurt to EMET Chrome right?
